Remco Evenepoel (Belgium) choose to go out early for the Elite Men's time trial. I may have been nerves, or just a desire to get done what needs to be done. Whatever the reason, he was the one setting new best times at every time check on the course. And that included the most important one at the end of his all out effort. The down side of going early was that now he had to wait to see if his time would stand up to all of the guys (43 of them) yet to come to Brussels. Spoiler... He finished the day with the bronze medal, but it was only the last two guys who moved him out of the hot seat he had held for most of the day.
